Winter Nature Walk

We had beautiful balmy weather yesterday (45 degrees) and were able to take a walk down to the post office. I took along this scavenger hunt list and we had an enjoyable time finding a variety of items and sights on the way. Not surprisingly it took us a whole hour to walk the 9 blocks to and from the post office, lol!The kids all dressed up in their coats, boots, and gloves; we stayed plenty warm with the sun shining on us even though there was a strong North wind.I strapped William (1yo) into the Ergo carrier and then topped it with DH's work coat which covered both of us plenty well indeed:)

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.(2 Corinthians 4:16-18)

I am concerned with a certain way of looking at life, which was created in me by the fairy tales, but has since been ratified by the mere facts. —G. K. Chesterson
